Anzac Day March
Growing up into Christ - Reaching out to the World
PARKES CHRISTIAN SCHOOL
Anzac Day MarchAnzac Day
On Thursday, 25 April, PCS students from Kindergarten to Year 12 took part in the community Anzac Day march. It was wonderful to see such a large turn out of staff and students in order to honour those brave men and women who gave their lives for our country.
The school was also well represented at the Dawn Service on Memorial Hill and the Anzac Day luncheon at the Services Club.
We are really proud to be part of community events such as Anzac Day and understand how important it is to pay tribute to all people who give so selflessly in so many different ways for our community and country as a whole.
